Greetings, great people of the #jewelry community; how are you all doing this weekend? I hope you all are doing well. I wish you all a successful weekend.
I am so excited to write a post today here in this community, which is all about making a colorful bracelet for my neighbor using Pearl beads and gold beads.
I made a bracelet for my sister, and my neighbor saw it. She fell in love with it, telling me it looked so beautiful that I should make one for her. She listed the color of the beads I should use and also showed me a design I should follow up on; although she did not need something exactly but something similar, so I chose to crack my brain and come out with something special for her.
This design you are seeing was originally made by me, and I am proud of it. To be sincere, it took me two days before I was able to come up with this design.
There were some difficulties I encountered, At the finish line I had the big side and when I passed it two times through the gold bead with the help of a needle, it was not passing free and when I forced it, it cut the bead into two, I suffer andIi feel like giving up but I said no. I had to get a small fishing line before I was able to succeed. Another thing is that the gold bead is not the same size; when working with it, it did not allow the bracelet to be smooth, which is why I chose this style. Although it was not the style I had in mind to do thank God the design came out neat.
I am making this post a DIY post; with that, I would love to share some steps I follow to achieve my design with the help of photos for more understanding.
Materials used
- fishing line
- pearl beads
- gold beads
- scissors
- beaded needle
- bracelet hook etc.
To get started, I cut the fishing line out and then insect my beaded needle. Pick 4 gold beads and pass them through the needle.
I then go through the four gold beads and then knoch a tie and cut out the excess, to make round, and then pass through one gold bead. See the photo below.
I then pick another 5 gold beads and pass through the fishing line
I then go through the previous gold bead.
I then pick one gold bead.
I then pass the fishing line at the 3 gold beads when counted upward, which is the center.
I then pass it back to make the one gold bead at the center, then down to the center bottom, and move up again by three gold beads, which is the center. See results.
I then pick 6 Pearl beads.
I then pass the gold bead in opposite directions to interlock it.
I then move forward by one pearl bead, then pick one pearl bead.
I counted 3 pearls upward, and then passed the fishing line at the 3 pearl beads and then through one insert Pearl bead. Then, throw the opposite 1 pearl beads and pass upward. I then go around to make sure the one pearl bead is in the center.
At the center, I pick one gold bead and then pass it around again to meet at the one gold bead.
I then pick 5 gold beads.
I then interlock it.
From this point is just the repetition of the previous steps. Therefore, I follow the same steps to achieve the rest of the steps.
I was able to achieve 6 steps which reached the required length
I then insect the bracelet hook at both ends.
And finally, the bracelet is ready.
This is lovely. I love the color combination; it looks brighter.
I would love to hear from you in the comments about how you feel about the bracelet. Thanks for reading through.
